when Skype works "over there"
We haven't been able to speak since he arrived there to begin his deployment so today I'm VERY happy! 4 (+/-) weeks down and only a million to go. Also, those first few weeks of my kid acting like a complete brat have passed. Hallelujer.

I'm also happy this is going to be S's last week of her first year playing t-ball. She's so good and I love watching her play, but 5 days of t-ball practices, games, meetings, ect. have really burned the both of us out.
Now she wants to try dance

that is awesome. i hope time flies and then slows down again once he's home. i love skype.

I have to say, I would never marry someone who proposed to me that way. The idea of making it a public spectacle instead of something intimate, to be put on the spot like that in case it's something you actually feel hesitant about or the need to discuss, horrifies me.

Is it the flash mob proposal? We're discussing it in the wedding thread. I'm alone in my wtfness haha

I got teary with that video, clearly you don't go to those types of extremes unless you know it's going to be yes. If you have everyone in your life backing it up, it's more than most likely it's a yes.

If you're that asshole that does it in front of a million strangers, it's almost always a no whether yes is said or not.

YES THIS. I thought it was super sweet. That type of proposal isn't for everyone but it looked to me like she loved it.

The girl was obviously ecstatic over the proposal, and I thought it was really sweet. I would be mortified and beyond embarrassed in her position though, even if I wanted to marry the guy in the first place. But that's just me, I'm not really into making big deals about stuff like that.
J proposed in our living room while we were watching Mythbusters. Romance.

I have seen the future and I'm fairly relieved to say, it looks nothing like me.
